    Summary

    Not one to back down so easy, the Surgeon has always cared for his legacy. Hidden in the shadows, creeping into the back of his mind at every waking moment, Martin Whitly wouldn't let his son go so easily. Not even a knife could sever the invisible string binding them together. Malcolm was, after all, his father's son.

    Still, there was another Whitly to account for. Too much pressure to be perfect, she was bound to snap eventually. History repeats itself, after all.

    Hellbent on returning to normalcy, Malcolm pushes himself to the edge in every way he can. New killers emerge and all are caught—until one isn't.

     

    "you should've got a better bed; better for your head; better heads need shut eye."

    post-s2 finale.
    lowercase intended!

    Summary

    "Who did you tell about this? Have you told lieutenant Arroyo yet?" He closed one slow step after another of the distance between them. "Answer me!" his scream rang through the closed space.

    "You don't want to do this, we're in the middle of the precinct," Malcolm tried the reasoning tactic, knowing full well it was bound to fail. Really, he should've ran when he had the chance.

    "So you haven't told him. Good."

     

    Malcolm caught a killer in the most unimpressive way, almost like, a killer caught Malcolm.

    Summary

    Malcolm's been acting strange ever since he got back from his two month long break. He's not been acting like himself, and the team are worried about him, especially Dani.

    Not only that, there's a new killer on the loose in New York that's been calling himself the Dark Angel, and Malcolm seems to be all too eager to work the case. Except, with every lead they get on their killer, it seems he's one step ahead of them every time. Almost like he knows their every move, and knows exactly how to stay out of their reach every time they get close.

    And then one of the team gets taken by the killer, and it's a race against time to catch the killer and get her back before she becomes the Dark Angel's latest victim.

    Summary

    After the season 2 finale Malcolm's in a bad place, he stabbed his father and now all he can see is his father in front of him, taunting him with the knowledge that they're the same.
    Malcolm just wants to rest...even if it means leaving the people he loves behind.
    ----------
    Dani just wanted to check in on her friend and make sure he's ok, instead she's faced with her worst nightmare.

    "A single tear escaped from the corner of his eye and Malcolm felt her hand against his cheek as she brushed it away. He felt her other hand grab his own, squeezing it comfortingly. “It’s ok if you want to let go, it’s ok if it’s your time to go.” Malcolm nodded, he wanted to go, he needed to go so that he could just rest."
